GARY WALTERS Princeton 1979-80 Two seasons (21-34/3-17)
Gary Walters had the unenviable task of following the legendary Dave Gavitt and suffered through a pair of losing seasons. He started his basketball career as an All-Ivy pick at Princeton who led the Tigers to the 1965 Final Four before being named assistant coach at Lehigh and, later, Dartmouth. He then moved on to the head spot at Middlebury (7-17) and Union (53-13) before going back to Princeton as an assistant. He was head coach at Dartmouth for three seasons (30-48). Walters was the Athletics Director at his alma mater, Princeton. 1979-80 (11-16/0-6) Coach: Gary Walters Captain: John Nolan

RICK PITINO
Massachusetts ‘74 1985-87 Two seasons (42-23/17-15) Few stars shone as bright as Rick Pitino’s college coaching career. He came to Providence and resurrected a sagging program, bringing it to a 17-14 record and an NIT appearance. His second year saw the Friars ride a magic carpet to the Final Four after a
25-9 record. Pitino was named National Coach of the Year for his incredible effort. He left Providence to become coach of the New York Knicks. After two seasons with the Knicks, he took over as the head coach at Kentucky where he led the Wildcats to the NCAA Championship in April of 1996. Following the 1996-97 season, he left Kentucky to take over the basketball operations of the Boston Celtics. He was the head coach at the University of Louisville. 1985-86 (17-14/7-9) Coach: Rick Pitino H:14-7 A:3-6 N:0-1 Captains: Dick Pennefather and Harold Starks

Lenoir-Rhyne ‘77 1988-94 Six seasons (108-76/47-55) Rick Barnes started his PC coaching career by winning 13 straight games, won more than any other PC first year coach and returned the Friars to the NCAA Tournament while picking up Northeastern Coach of the Year honors. He followed that with a trip to the NCAA’s in 1990 and the NIT in 1991. In 1993, the Friars were NIT semifinalists. A year later, in 1994, they were the school’s first BIG EAST Tournament Champions. He won more league
196
games (47) than any other Friar coach and was the first in almost 20 years to post three consecutive winning seasons. Barnes was the first Friar coach to win in the Cap Centre, the Carrier Dome and to sweep Georgetown. He played a whopping 29 percent of his games against top 25 teams winning 17 of them. He posted a 32-20 league home record and was 5-5 in the BIG EAST Tournament. He resigned after the 1994 BIG EAST Tournament to take the head coaching job at Clemson University where he coached four seasons. In April of 1998, Barnes accepted the head coaching job at the University of Texas. He is now the head coach at Tennesee. 1988-89 (18-11/7-9) Coach: Rick Barnes Captains: Bryan Benham

Pete Gillen spent four seasons as the head coach at Providence College where his teams racked up a 72-53 overall record with two trips to the NIT and a run to the NCAA’s Elite Eight during the 1996-97 season. That Friar team came within 3.9 seconds of going to the Final Four, as PC lost to eventual champion, Arizona, 96-92, in overtime. After ten seasons without an NCAA Tournament victory, PC reeled off three against Marquette, Duke and Tennessee-Chattanooga before falling to Arizona. The 24-12 mark was PC’s best since 1986-87. In Gillen’s final season with the Friars, PC turned in a 13-16 record and was 7-11 in BIG EAST play. On March 27, 1998, less than four full years after taking the Providence position, Gillen accepted the University of Virginia coaching job. Gillen came to the Friars on March 30, 1994 after nine seasons at Xavier where his teams compiled a 202-75 record (.729) and won six Midwestern Collegiate Conference titles. 1994-95 (17-13/7-11) Coach: Pete Gillen H:13-5 A:3-7 N:1-1 Captains: Michael Brown, Franklin Western and Eric Williams

Media attention, especially television, is what big-time college basketball is all about. And the BIG EAST re-wrote the book on television exposure and media attention. Since its formation in 1979, the BIG EAST has been the most televised and most-watched conference in the country! The Friars will have every game televised this season. With its agreement with the BIG EAST, Fox Sports 1 and other Fox Networks will cover every game, which ensures that all the Friar games will be seen nationally. When not on one of the Fox Networks, some Friar game can be seen nationally on CBS Sports Network and ESPN. Fox Sports 1 is scheduled to televise the BIG EAST Tournament from Madison Square Garden in March.
John Rooke is an award-winning broadcaster, and a member of the Class of 2011 for the Rhode Island Radio Hall of Fame. He currently serves in several capacities, including 30 years as play-by-play voice for Providence College basketball; 25 seasons as voice for the New England Patriots and New England Revolution; current talk host for WOR 710 New York, the WEEI Radio Network in Boston, Providence and throughout New England; host of This Week in the Big East syndicated nationally on Westwood One and Sirius/XM Radio...and John is also a former host on ESPN Radio and the NBC Sports Radio Network.

Indicative of the tremendous support and interest in the Providence College basketball program is the attention Head Coach Ed Cooley and Friars receive from the local media. The Providence College Basketball Show with Head Coach Ed Cooley, hosted by Frank Carpano, airs weekly during the BIG EAST season on WJAR-TV 10. It features in-depth stories on the Friars, as well as recaps and previews. WPRO 99.7, the radio home of Friar basketball, broadcasts the Ed Cooley Radio Show 10 times throughout the season.
